Famous video game streamer Steven Destiny Bonnell hated Dune: Part One. Will he have a different opinion on the sequel?
Will resolve yes if Destiny says it was a decent movie and that he enjoyed it. He might have a lot to nitpick and criticize, as long as he enjoyed it overall, this will resolve yes.
What will not be enough for a yes-Resolution:
Him merely saying it was better than Dune Part 1
"eh, I thought it was alright"
If it is clear that he will not watch it anytime soon, this will resolve N/A at the end of May.

I dont know if this market plummeted due to him commenting on it already, but I went to see Dune II yesterday and I would have absolutely bet this to <5% if someone didn't get to it before me. I felt very similarly to Destiny about the first one and despite the fact that the recurring character development was mildly better, most of the flaws of the first movie were even more exaggerated.
The pacing was painfully restless with most of the hype building ending up very anticlimatic. Many of the new characters [like feyd-rautha (jesus christ can we stop with these easy-to-despise absolutely one-dimensional sadistic evil characters whose only purposes are to make you cringe and then be defeated as a +1 to the protagonist's street cred), the emperor and his daughter] were absolutely bland and seemed mere plot devices. The love story/scenes were late-90s-cringe. I thought Chalamet did a better job than the first movie and Stellan Skarsgård is amazing, but most of the actors kinda flopped (Ferguson, Brolin, Barden) or continued their mediocre performances (Zendaya, Bautista)
It was audiovisually gorgeous and Herbert's world is amazing, but... overall it's... just a very mediocre movie (series) so far.
